Free Pascal was originally derived from Object Pascal and later Delphi, both of which added more object oriented programming features to Pascal. Additionally, it supports some of the more advanced features introduced to Pascal with later re

Why is this on hackernews right now? It's an old program, closed source, hasn't been updated in ages, and the author abandoned it long ago because he doesn't like people using it to recreate tables. This seems like a shameles

It can be incorporated into a 3D scene as long as you can make a square billboard . You may have problems with clipping that' you need to address manually, but it might be worth it as you can get better visuals, assuming you are trying

That's very interesting. Thank you for the link. From what I read and see in the images, I gather he's done the same thing I have, as you guessed as well. Obviously he's going much further. The author is using a subtle bump m

Well first of you get infinite smoothness and better lighting (and reflections if you add them) because there is no underlying geometry. It's just math. It's also much faster, as you're only giving the GPU four vertices defin

Having followed this project on youtube for a while, it would be nice if Stephen (one of the creators) posted a video of the machine actually working. All of his prior content has been related to trying to solve problems with his design. A

This tool is not at all scientific or accurate. One problem is that this tool assumes most of the water flows through rivers and out to oceans, when in many cases water flows underground in aquifers, emerging elsewhere. In the US south east
